While the specific carols sung change from year to year, we follow the beloved King’s College pattern, always beginning with “Once in Royal David’s City” and concluding with “Hark! The He rald Angels Sing.”

This year’s service will include guest readers from our wider community, including:

Anne Eagen – Pediatrician & Chairman of the Board, Wolfson Children’s Hospital
Tiffany McCall – Pastor, First United Methodist
Ginny Myrick – President & CEO, Cathedral District Jax
Brian Ward – Development Director, Catholic Charities
Courtney Lewis – Music Director, Jacksonville Symphony
Donna Deegan – Mayor, City of Jacksonville

At the champagne reception, we’ll toast the New Year London-style! Tune in with us to BBC One as Big Ben’s “bongs” ring at midnight in London, followed by a spectacular display over the London Eye.
